Mother Pin Afire
This sculpture belongs to the Mother Pin series. Syd Carpenter uses the form of an antique wooden clothes pin to represent her deceased mother, Ernestine Carpenter. The clothes pin steps across a textured landscape, flames flickering over her elegant shape, evoking a being of power and presence.
